NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Former Grizzlies star Tony Allen will be inducted into the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame in their 2025 class.

While Smart is known to be one of the best defenders in the league, his tenure in Memphis has been utterly disappointing. In his debut season with the Grizzlies, Smart played just 20 games before suffering a season-ending injury. Now, in his second season in Memphis, Smart's injuries continue to be a concern.

The Grizzlies have hit the midpoint of the NBA season, so it is time for the mid-season check-in. Are the Grizzlies a contender?

The Grizzlies take on the Timberwolves on Monday afternoon. Is Grizzlies guard Ja Morant going to play in the game.

Western Conference contenders, the Ja Morant-led Memphis Grizzlies and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's OKC Thunder, are eyeing Cam Johnson ahead of the deadline.

Both Morant and Bane detect Bane’s defender, Dillon Brooks, focusing on the dribbler. Bane slides from the wing to the corner, and Morant takes off simultaneously, dragging his man, Fred VanVleet, out of the play and leaving Bane wide open for a corner 3 as Brooks heads to disrupt Wells.

Steve Kerr and the Steph Curry -led Golden State Warriors lost 125-85 to the Boston Celtics on Monday. The last time the Dubs suffered a defeat by such a margin was in January 1985 against the Dallas Mavericks (149-104). Kerr raised the white flag early after Boston extended its 54-39 halftime advantage to a 97-63 lead entering the fourth quarter.

Ja Morant may have had the dunk of the year after posterizing Victor Wembanyama, but the Grizzlies star's epic highlight did not count.

De’Aaron Fox appeared on the injury report Friday morning with a glute injury, and the Kings are expected to be without him. Fox was seen participating in Kings’ shootaround earlier in the day, but it looks as though the star point guard will be unable to play in Friday’s game.

Cleveland Cavaliers and Boston Celtics secure significant wins against the Suns and Warriors, showcasing dominant performances in January 2025.

⋅ The final minute of regulation against Atlanta was frenetic and, at times, tough to keep track of. But it certainly looked as if Jrue Holiday lost track of the score after the Celtics decided earlier that they would foul the Hawks while holding a 3-point lead.

Jayson Tatum scored 22 points, Kristaps Porzingis had 18, and the Boston Celtics handed the Golden State Warriors their most lopsided home loss
